It was built in 1920 of "Florida field limestone, rubble masonry, with brick quoins at openings, arched windows, triple-arched entry porch," etc.[1] Additions have been made to the rear and to the south. In 1989, the building was listed in A Guide to Florida's Historic Architecture, published by the University of Florida Press.[1]
